This is done using the `settrans` command to attach a translator to a given file system node. When programs access the node by, for example, sending an RPC, the Hurd will transparently start the server to handle the request. - - # settrans -fgap /servers/socket/2 /hurd/pfinet -i eth0 \ - -a 192.168.0.50 -g 192.168.0.1 -m 255.255.255.0 - -Here, `settrans` is passed several options: - -* `fg`, force any existing translator to go away. -* `ap`, make both active and passive translators. - -The active translator means that the operating system both starts the translator immediately and passinve means that the settings are saved in the file system node. The former also means that any error messages are sent to `stderr`. - -The argument `/server/socket/2` is the node that the translator is to be attached to. This is followed by the translator program to run and any arguments to give it. - --a, -g and -m are, quite obviously, the IP address, the gateway and netmask. - -Help on settrans can be obtained by passing it the `--help` option. Help on a specific translator can be gotten by invoking it from the command line with the same argument, e.g.: - - # /hurd/pfinet --help - -As there can be a lot of output, consider piping this through a pager. - -Finally copy over your `/etc/resolv.conf` from GNU/Linux to allow your DNS to resolve correctly. - --- [[Main/GrantBow]] - 26 Oct 2002 - -Text formatting. -- [[Main/OgnyanKulev]] - 19 Sep 2004 |
